4/9 April 9 - ChromeOS Roaming Client v2.4.0

Ahead of Google's deprecation of Manifest v2, which is the architecture on which the ChromeOS Roaming Client has been based, we are releasing a final build for this specific ecosystem before releasing an all new Manifest V3 compatible ChromeOS Roaming Client v3.0 in May.
The following enhancements are included in this release:
Enhancements
  • Introduced new hidden metadata field for hashed device serial number, in preparation for the new Manifest V3 compatible Chrome RC due out in May.
NOTE
:
It is advised to double check your Google Workspace / RMM settings for automatic updates for Google extensions. This specific version of the ChromeOS Roaming Client includes a new backend metadata field that will prevent the new version in May from duplicating Roaming Client records in the dashboard. Failing to update to this interim version will result in the aforementioned duplication.
